Velostrata Speeds and Simplifies Cloud Migration for SAP

SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Velostrata,
a leader in cloud migration and workload mobility, today announced a
partnership with myCloudDoor, specialists in cloud and IT transition
services, to deliver SAP migration services that will help enterprises
migrate SAP workloads to Microsoft Azure faster, more easily and with no
risk of data loss. The program will combine myCloudDoor’s expertise in
all phases of cloud migration, from assessment and discovery to
execution and managed services, with Velostrata’s unique cloud migration
platform that is optimal for moving complex, multi-tier workloads like
SAP.

Advantages of Moving SAP Landscapes to the Cloud

By moving SAP to the cloud, organizations can avoid overprovisioning
infrastructure and build out SAP environments that can easily scale to
the changing needs of the business. Enterprise IT departments can also
expedite the creation of SAP Sandboxes, as well as development and
training systems, and other short-term use cases. Users can take
advantage of cloud automation, rapid deployment tools and
consumption-based pricing. By migrating existing SAP environments out of
aging hardware, organizations are also able to eliminate datacenter
hardware refresh and storage upgrades.

“We see a great need among enterprises for knowledgeable people to help
guide cloud migration strategy, and the right tools ensure a smooth
migration,” said Jose Hernandez, CEO of myCloudDoor. “Successful SAP
migration requires deep understanding of the application itself and its
many dependencies. Velostrata’s unique migration platform allows
companies to migrate both the applications and associated data in a way
that gets workloads in the cloud quickly, while avoiding risk of
downtime and data loss.”

The Velostrata-myCloudDoor Solution

myCloudDoor has over 15 years of experience performing SAP migrations to
Microsoft platforms, and now brings this expertise to help customers
migrate SAP landscapes to Microsoft Azure. This “SAP Migration as a
Service” solution combines myCloudDoor’s experience and migration
methodology with Velostrata’s cloud migration and workload mobility
software, creating a unique offering to help customers move SAP
workloads to the Microsoft Azure Cloud in a safer, quicker and more
efficient way.

Velostrata’s patent-pending workload streaming technology migrates SAP
landscapes to AWS or Microsoft Azure in minutes, without the complex
sync or cutover challenges and data consistency pitfalls that exist with
agent-based replication solutions. Velostrata moves the actual SAP
instances first, and then streams the data in the background, while WAN
optimizations, deduplication and multi-tier caching ensure the
application performs normally. Reads and writes are first captured
resiliently in the cloud, then synced back on-prem, so there is a safety
net in the event that an instance needs to be moved back to the data
center.

“Velostrata’s platform was engineered to migrate complex workloads like
SAP from on-prem to public clouds. Our agentless, streaming-based
approach incorporates key tools like our Runbook Automation that script
and automate migration of multi-tier workloads,” said Ady Degany, CTO
and co-founder of Velostrata. “myCloudDoor has expertise in both SAP and
Microsoft Azure, making them an ideal partner to help enterprises with
their SAP migration strategy.”
